AAPD Summer Internship Program for students with disabilities

Dear Friends of AAPD:

Each summer, the American Association of People 

with Disabilities (AAPD) hosts a summer internship program

in Washington, DC for students with all types of disabilities.

AAPD's Summer Internships Program offers college students, 

law students, and other graduate and professional students with 

disabilities the opportunity to work in public service for ten weeks

on Capitol Hill and at federal agencies. This ten-week experience 

gives interns the opportunity to gain invaluable hands-on experience 

in government, including insight into government office operations, 

public policy development, law-making and research, and constituents' 

roles in the legislative and administrative processes. Interns receive a 

stipend, travel to and from DC, and fully-accessible housing.



The 2011 AAPD Washington DC Summer Internships Program for 

Students with Disabilities is generously sponsored by Walmart, 

the Mitsubishi Electric America Foundation (MEAF) and the HSC 

Foundation.


Applications must be received by 5:00 PM (Eastern Standard Time) 

on or before Monday, January 24, 2011.
